I am asthmatic and currently battling bronchitis, and have been concerned about the immune suppressing nature of my steroid inhalers (and the short course of Prednisone the doctor put me on), even though I also know they control the inflammation. But perhaps my QVar steroid inhaler is good. I'm seeing my new regular doctor next week, and might discuss this with her.
